You will build relations of trust with key stakeholders, uncover needs and pains, communicate the business value of our market leading solution, and drive the sales process. You will work with the support of our competent team of Solution Engineers, but as our solution is simple and user-friendly, you will quickly be able to drive most of the sales process on your own.

What we´re looking for:
- Proven track record in new business sales within commercial enterprise accounts (1000+ employees).
- Strategic sales approach with the ability to engage multiple stakeholders and navigate complex decision-making processes.
- Experience in data backup, recovery, or similar SaaS/IT infrastructure solutions is a plus, but not a must.
- Strong understanding of channel sales and how to work effectively with Italian partners is beneficial.
- Skilled in building long-term, trust-based relationships with C-level and senior decision-makers.
- Self-driven and adaptable, with strong cross-functional collaboration skills.

- Sell into a largely untapped Italian market with huge growth potential.
- Represent a solution with clear market demand.
- Be part of a company in strong growth with a proven product.
- Collaborate with experienced colleagues across sales, partners, and technical teams.
- Take ownership of your own customer base and results.
